- The training objectives are aimed at the acquisition of tools and skills and their individual critical use, which the three-part course aims to convey to the student and whose actual acquisition will be assessed in the final examination.¿The course also aims to achieve the following objectives¿Critical analysis of the main teaching methodologies developed in the research in didactics of philosophy, also with reference to the specific role of the teacher, to the conceptual, epistemological and didactic nodes of the teaching and learning of the disciplines of interest, and in function of the development of semiotic skills as well as the expansion of expressive and cognitive potential in the specific disciplinary field.¿¿Design and development of philosophy teaching activities: illustration of the principles and methodologies for the construction of activities and, more generally, of a philosophy curriculum, also bearing in mind the needs for language enhancement and consolidation of linguistic practices necessary for the achievement of training and education objectives in the disciplines of interest.

- Learning verification modality
- The main object of assessment concerns the acquisition of the critical capacity and individual use of the methodologies and tools acquired during the course, through the critical and methodical reading of the texts indicated in the programme and according to the phenomenological method illustrated during the course of the lectures.In addition, the test verifies the following aspects: 1. Ability to apply knowledge and understanding, autonomy of judgement, understood as the ability to produce autonomous judgements, arriving at coherent reflections on social, scientific or ethical issues; 2. Communication skills, conceived as the ability to transmit information, ideas, problems and solutions to other interlocutors; 3. Learning ability, understood as the ability required to progress in studies with a high degree of autonomy. The examination will take the form of a thirty-minute oral test in which the fundamental issues of the course will be covered.¿In the event that the student intends to sit the exam in a year prior to the year scheduled in the study plan, it is recommended that he/she attends the cycle of lectures and takes the exam in the first useful call after the lectures have ended, thus respecting the semester of the teaching schedule.¿¿Students with disabilities and/or SLDs are invited to visit the page on tools and measures and to agree in advance on what is necessary with the professor.

- Extended program
- The course aims first of all to describe the Husserlian phenomenological approach in all its aspects, with a particular focus on his seminal work *Logical Investigations*. Subsequently, with particular reference to the ‘Fifth Inquiry’, the course will seek to unpack the phenomenological core of Jaspers’s psychopathology, highlighting not only its phenomenological and existential roots, but also Jaspers’s original philosophical conception of therapy.
